There are a couple "tricks" you can implement to reduce warping as much as possible (such as alternating sides you weld on to have the warping negate its-self). Also, after tacking and again after welding, you can/should force the piece back to square with a mallet or another form of a "soft hammer" (so that you move the piece with minimal denting).


Oh and Chris&Team, good job! You guys look good. (I'm a little jealous )
